Okay…it’s not a set list of 45s, but I thought I’d post here before listing on eBay in order to give G45 members the first chance to snag this incredible collection.

For sale is a binder full of color snapshots—performance/live and close-ups—of rock/garage bands/artists from the Maryland/Virginia/Washington, D.C. area taken in 1965. There are 275 photos in total, most being of the groups/artists. There are also photos of local deejays, as well as some dancing and a few non-band pictures.

The bands include both legendary recording groups as well as forgotten local combos that likely never recorded. There are also a handful of bands that are not identified. In addition, there are a handful of handwritten note cards that list the names of the individual band members for many of the groups. Some of the groups without "(Recorded)" next to their name may have recorded...I haven't crossed checked...

The list of photos:
  • · Apollos (Recorded)
  • · Madhatters (Recorded)
  • · Stowaways
  • · British Walkers (Recorded)
  • · Chartbusters (Recorded)
  • · Revels
  • · Chancellors
  • · Johnnie Dark (WEAM)
  • · Londoners
  • · Roaches (Recorded)
  • · Terry Knight (WEAM)
  • · Bob Parkinson (WEAM)
  • · Rogues
  • · Marve Brookes (WPGC)
  • · Beau Havens
  • · Tiger Bob Raleigh (WPGC)
  • · Maruaders
  • · Hi Walkers
  • · Tributes
  • · Organic Cavemen
  • · Jimmy Nabors (WEAM)
  • · Shadows
  • · Halos
  • · Disciples
  • · Russ Wheeler (WEAM)
  • · Mickey Lee Lane (Recorded)
  • · Cobras
  • · Link Wray (Recorded)
  • · Bob Rubino
  • · Dean Griffith (WPGC)
  • · Kenny Deno
  • · Electras
  • · Opon Rodes
  • · Road Runners
I’m asking $700 (less than $3 per photo) for the entire book. Individual snapshots from the era typically sell on eBay for between $10-$25 per, and that is for unidentified combos. I’m also willing to listen to serious offers.

I’ve attached two sample pages. Please note that not all pages are filled with eight photos per, but there are 275 total (maybe 274 if I counted wrong).

Please PM if interested. Thanks.
